1. KG (with his permission) and JET to Clippers for Jordan, Bledsoe, and Billups.

Hell no. KG is the anchor of our defense and is our ONLY constant player on offense. I'm not willing to give that up for a guy who averages 8 and 6 with 10 mil per year and a highlight block here and then.. Bledsoe is ok i guess but nowhere near to being a consistent starting point guard.. CB is good but after the injury, he'll never be the same. Plus he's 36.

2. PP and Bass to Lakers for Gasol and Blake

Ummm no? PP is alone worth more than that old softy and Blake. I would do it if it were the Gasol from 08'. Steve is an average at best pg and a black hole at D.

3. Rondo to Kings for Cousins and Evans.

Not a bad idea, but I think we shouldn't trade the best pg in the league. I mean, we get cool guys in return, but we should wait. Plus, I am pretty sure the Kings say NO.

Or we could just FIRE Doc:-)))))

I don't think it's the problem with Doc, but more with our guys' mental issues. They must know they gotta give a 100 percent, no matter if it's a 27 point deficit or a 27 point lead. We are NOT going to find a better coach than Doc.

In other words, the team sucks the rest of the year, but next summer, has room for 1 max contract (in addition to room to re-sign Teague and Pekovic) and will have Varejao and Williams coming back in addition to that probable high lottery pick.

Then in the 2014 summer, the team once again will have room for a max contract when Butler and Ridnour come off the books and get a couple of more 1st round picks (their own and the Rondo trade) in what is projected as a very deep 2014 draft.

Obviously this would be a risky way to go, but it clears a ton of salary to get cap room each of the next two summers and provides a number of young players on reasonable contracts to develop.

I don't think Varejao and Pekovic would play well together. Varejao struggled alongside Shaq in Cleveland. Pekovic is farily similar to Shaq offensively in the latter years of Shaq's career. Varejao and Shaq had major spacing problems when they played together.

Maybe start Sullinger and bring Varejao off the bench as a sixth man. Not ideal but I think the best use of the players available.

A decent Rondo trade where we get Brandon Jennings and Drew Gooden where we fill two needs. I just think Brandon Jennings would fit in better in Boston and Drew Gooden is a very servicable big.

I like Drew Gooden, but he has hardly been playing at all for the Bucks and therefore I think we can get him for next to nothing. Certainly, we will not have to give up RR. I do like Gooden and would love for us to get him!!!
